    Surf's up soon all along the ice coast. Currently 40-50ft seas near the center of the storm. [emoji15]

    Yeah, I've been keeping my eye on that one. It formed from a huge wave of energy that came off of Africa last week and has only gained strength and organization once it hit the hot waters of the Atlantic. IF this thing gets close to land it could be really bad.

    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.</p>

    Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

    Well there are physical Limits in earths atmosphere. Similar to the near zero Chance for an F6 Tornado. ( the limiting factors are obviously different parameters [emoji6] )
    It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

    Spoler alert:

    Hawaii gets completely stripped of all soil, vegetation and evidence of mankind by 300+ mph winds. Things go down hill from there.

    I was kinda hoping this one would land for him. Gotta be everything he's ever wanted.
    I still call it The Jake.

    Heh, no. Last I heard was a semi retirement gig driving school buses and making surprisingly good money.
